[quote=Anonymous]Appointments are easy - Uber, public transportation, medical transport, telehealth, etc. As for moving to a higher level of care, if you don't have friends and family, then the facility staff will assist you with finding a new placement and with moving. If you don't agree and are competent, the facility will initiate eviction proceedings and in a short window of time, the court will order you to move and a sheriff or other law enforcement member will move you. Where you end up will depend on how uncooperative you are. At worst, you can end up in a shelter or on the street - but then your competency would likely be questioned if you let it get to that point. If you aren't competent, the facility will initiate guardianship proceedings and the appointed guardian will make the arrangements. If no one volunteers to be your guardian, the court will issue an order appointing one. There are paid services that do this. As an aside, eviction will also happen if you stop paying your bill.
